Problem with EPiServer 8 upgrade

Vote:
 

I tried the preview upgrade on a project with the SiteSeeker module on it yesterday and most of it did go well but I have one problem that I can't figure out what it is.

We have this class

public class IntraSiteSeekerConfiguration : EPiServerSiteSeekerConfiguration
    {
        public CustomerSiteSeekerConfiguration()
            : base(new SiteSeekerServiceOverride(), 
                   new SiteSeekerServiceOverride())
        {
        }
    }

And the baseClass looks like this:

public class EPiServerSiteSeekerConfiguration : SiteSeekerConfiguration
    {
        public EPiServerSiteSeekerConfiguration(params SiteSeekerServiceOverride[] serviceOverrides);
    }

The error we get is this: (sorry for the swedish in the message)

[NullReferenceException: Objektreferensen har inte angetts till en instans av ett objekt.]

Anyone got any clue?

Peek into ConfigureEPiServerVersionSpecificOverrides(), I'd guess there's some hard coded stuff not handling v8 in there.

Did you upgrade SiteSeeker module at the same time? We saw some problems with that: http://world.episerver.com/Modules/Forum/Pages/Thread.aspx?id=116859

Thanks Johan.

I talked to the support for SiteSeeker and they have confirmed that it is a bug that the integration module tries to load a support module that have no version that support version eight yet.

They are working on it

Is 4.2.9251-beta the latest version? Got it 1/4 from Siteseeker support.

I still got the problem with that version and Episerver version 8.5.0.0

Update: got feedback from Siteseeker support again: apparently something wrong with the package, so they mailed me som new DLLs and with them it works with Episerver v8.5.0.0
